I know its totally not fair to show off these summer-like pictures when many of you are still knee-deep in snow. 😉 But maybe itll encourage you that spring and summer are on their way! So I took Emma to the park on Saturday. It was lovely out, and I knew she needed some fun after being cooped up for so long. Her first reaction she stood there for about five minutes! I finally had to go show her it was supposed to be played in. lol Then she got it. 🙂 And oh, the smiles and babbling as she dumped sand into her new dollar store bucket! The one below is one of my favorites! Her expression is priceless. lol I think she just ate some sand I have no idea what she was thinking, I was snapping pictures like crazy. Possibly the neighbor child digging in the sand…
Hello all! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! I decided to go with a recipe today. This is a favorite from my childhood something easy (you can use leftover chicken) and oh-so-tasty! I dont know about you, but Im all for EASY. And tasty. 😉 Thanks, mom, for making such yummy snacks and giving me a great quick dinner idea! Easy Cheesy Chicken Salsa French Bread Ingredients: Leftover cooked chicken, shredded or chopped Salsa Grated Cheese 1) Preheat oven to 375 degrees. 2) Slice French bread loaf and spread salsa on both slices. 2) Top slices with cheese. 3) Top cheese with shredded/chopped cooked chicken. 4) Place slices on baking sheet and heat until cheese is melted and crust is a golden color (about 8-10 minutes).

Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime an adventure that your entire family can take part in! Ill have to admit that before being introduced to Wizard101, I didnt know much about online multiplayer games except that they looked intimidating (to me), and that people love them. My husband has played them before, and Ive watched over his shoulder and wondered what the draw was. I even tried his game once (DAOC), and although I enjoyed it, I was annoyed by the people who would come over and try to friend me or talk to me when I was trying to adventure. Hello! I was busy! I figured maybe I wasnt the type of person who should be playing the online games after that and gave up. 😉 I recently joined the wonderful Game Review Network, and was excited when I was given the opportunity to review Wizard101, a…
Who knew it could be so hard finding a type of sippy cup that wouldnt drive me crazy? I certainly didnt know what was in store for me before my daughter was born almost two years ago. Sippy cups can be so frustrating most of them leak and are hard to clean. The Whole Grisly Story I have been through so many types of sippy cups and straw cups its not even funny. Despite carefully reading the features of the cups before buying, looking for the words leak-free or leak-proof, I would find myself with another huge mess to clean up, or with another stain on my hopeless rug (glad I live in an apartment). Let me tell you, every sippy cup out there says its leak-proof. After over a year of dealing with sippy cups that have leaked all over my daughters bedding, the couch, the floor, and even…
Im 27! That feels so old. At 25, I stopped looking forward to the next wow, Im ____ age. I remember being excited about 13 (Im a teen now!), 16 (sweet sixteen whatever that means), 18 (I dont know why, but it seems a lot older than 17), then 21 (and not because I could drink legally, either). At 25, I was a quarter of a century and that didnt seem too cool, but 27? Im way too close to 30 for comfort. I know Im acting like Im horrified or something, but Im really not. Just kind of surprised time is flying by so quickly. Does it seem to anyone else that time drags when youre a kid/teen? When youre eagerly awaiting something (and you always are when youre younger), time goes slowly. But when you dont want time to pass, it goes faster (like that dentist appointment that…

If you read my blog regularly, you know that I love green and organic products. I didnt really care too much before my daughter was born, but as soon as that adorable little bundle was placed in my arms, that all changed. Soft, sensitive skin. Trusting, innocent eyes. A complete helplessness that placed a new sense of responsibility for my decisions on my shoulders. As it came time to start baby-proofing the house, I took a look at the cleaning products under my sink. I couldnt leave all those poisonous chemicals around I couldnt take that risk. Even if I kept them up high and out of reach, the fumes are so strong and unpleasant. I just didnt want them around. So I purged my cleaning supplies and began looking for natural, non-poisonous alternatives. Which eventually led me to EcoStore USA! Ecostore USA is popular for its gentle but effective…
